Xu Shanlan

Chapter 14

Gu Haiping's parents stared wide-eyed in amazement, and his father scolded: "You loser, why are you crazy? You didn't kowtow to the master just now, and here you are talking nonsense! You really deserve a beating!" After speaking, he raised his hand.

Gu Haiping flinched, then gritted his teeth, met his father's angry gaze, and said loudly, "I'm going to S city."

"You bastard." His father reached out to slap him, but his mother blocked him, "What are you doing, who doesn't want to go up to a high place?" She glared at Father Gu, pulled the child over, and said earnestly, "Son, how about that?" It’s in the city, we’re in the countryside, it’s different. Your master and uncle are all from the city, and they will go back sooner or later.”

Gu Haiping was not convinced: "Then why can senior brother and Xu Shanlan go? If they can go, I can go!"

His mother sighed: "Of course Cong Zhanyi will go with his father. As for Shanlan, his parents are not around, so where will he go if he doesn't go together? You are different, your home is here, what are you going to do in the city?"

Gu Haiping bit his lips and remained silent, looking up at his mother for a long time, his eyes were full of sincerity and pleading: "Mom, I want to practice martial arts, I want to be like master and senior brother. Mom, I want to leave here."

"Where can you go if you leave here? What can you do, ah? You bastard, you still hate your parents? Do you hate this small village? Let me tell you, don't eat what's in the bowl and look at what's in the pot, study hard Fishing is serious!" Gu's father put his hands on his hips, cursing until he spat.

Gu Haiping didn't like to listen, so he turned his face to one side, very reluctantly.

After all, his mother felt sorry for her son, and took the child's hand: "Hai Ping, listen to what mother said, people are born different. You study hard, you can go to university in the future, and you can also go to the city to see the world."

"I don't!" Gu Haiping shouted, "I don't, I'm going to go with them now!"

"A prodigal son." His father came up and slapped Gu Haiping, "Fuck you!" Gu Haiping covered his face with his hands, tears welled up in his eyes, and looked at his parents with trembling lips.Although his father has a big temper, he rarely beats his children. Today, he lost face in front of the villagers and drank again, so he couldn't control himself.Hitting my son, I regretted it a bit, and couldn't bear to apologize, and said loudly on purpose: "It's not sensible to raise such a big child, go to the city, go to the city, where did the family get the money to let you go to the city? Go to the city What are you doing here? Picking up trash and excrement?”

His mother pushed his father, and said angrily, "What are you talking about?" She came over to protect her son, "Let Mom see, does it hurt?"

Gu Haiping suddenly pushed his mother's hand away, turned around and ran out of the house.The cold wind whizzed past his ears, and tears fell down his cheeks. He raised his sleeves and wiped his face, then ran back to Cong's yard.

He was still drinking inside, his shoulders were crossed, his face was red.Jungle has a very good capacity for alcohol, and after a few large bowls, he is still slightly drunk, talking and laughing loudly with the villagers.Yin Yi drank too much, and his stomach ached. He asked the cook to make some hot soup to drink, and it seemed to be better.He didn't dare to drink any more, and slowly walked out of the courtyard door to breathe, when he suddenly saw Gu Haiping running from a distance, with a strange expression on his face.Yin Yi called out: "Hai Ping, what are you doing?"

With tears in his eyes, Gu Haiping ran up to Yin Yi with a puff, knelt down with a plop, and said, "Uncle Master, take me away, I want to practice martial arts." After speaking, he bowed his waist and landed heavily on the ground He kowtowed.

Yin Yi's expression turned serious, he pulled Gu Haiping up, and said softly, "My good boy, if you have anything to say, tell Master."

Gu Haiping's eyes were full of longing: "Master, I just want to practice martial arts, and I want to go to the city with you."

"Did you tell your parents?"

Gu Haiping nodded, then shook his head again, with a gloomy expression.

Yin Yi pondered for a while, and did not speak for a long time.Gu Hai looked at his uncle calmly, gradually showing disappointment, but saw Yin Yi raised his head, and said firmly, "Go, I'll tell your parents." Gu Haiping was both surprised and happy, his heart pounding. Jumping wildly, followed Gu Haiping back home.

Gu's mother was blaming his father sentence by sentence: "You can't hit the child even if you are angry? What he said is wrong? What's wrong with going to the city? You can't send him because you are incompetent. Why are you scolding the child? "

Gu's father kept his head in suspense and did not speak, smoking the dry cigarette in one gulp.He has the same temper as all country men, but he is sincerely kind to this daughter-in-law who has finally married, and never speaks back.

Gu's mother was counting down, when she looked up, she saw Yin Yi leading Gu Haiping in, she hurriedly stood up: "Master Yin, hello, hello, hurry up, sit on the kang." Gu's father also stood up and scratched head, smiling foolishly.

"It's nothing." Yin Yi waved his hand, "I'm here to ask you one thing." He pulled Gu Haiping in front of him, "This kid has long legs and a thin waist, he is a good material for martial arts, I want to take him to S City Continue to practice martial arts, maybe even participate in some competitions..."

Gu's father and mother looked at each other, mouth open and unable to speak.Yin Yi continued: "You don't have to worry about the child's expenses, his master will bear it. And, maybe in a few years, we can solve the city's household registration for him and become a person in S City."

For the Gu family's parents, it was a good thing that the pie fell from the sky. They met a good person who could not be found with a lantern.You must know that in those days, the urban hukou was like an admission ticket to heaven, and how many people spent a lot of money, worked hard and even sacrificed their entire lives to get such a small book.Father Gu was so excited that he could speak incoherently: "How good this is, how good this is..." Mother Gu burst into tears: "Master Yin, thank you so much, Master Cong. You are the great benefactors of our family. I will never forget it." She held her son down, "Quick, kowtow to your uncle."

Gu Haiping knelt down and kowtowed three times to Yin Yi respectfully.Yin Yi didn't move away either, this ceremony cannot be revoked, three heads kowtowed down, from now on Gu Haiping was in charge of Yin Yi and Conglin, they had the responsibility and obligation to educate this child into an adult.

After Gu Haiping finished kowtowing, Yin Yi pulled him up: "I'm packing up my things at home these few days, and get together with my parents. We'll move out on February [-]nd."

Gu's father and mother were very grateful, and they left Yin Yi after sending Yin Yi to the gate of the courtyard.Yin Yi was not in a hurry to go back, he looked at the snow-washed night sky, and took a deep breath of the clear air.The smell of alcohol rose to the top of his head, Yin Yi felt a little dizzy, he closed his eyes and meditated for a while, and then walked back slowly.

The banquets in the courtyard had already dissipated, and the twenty or so large round tables were left in a mess. People staggered drunkenly in twos and threes and left one after another.Yin Yi returned to the West Wing, and his clothes were tilted on the kang, the pain in his stomach came up again, he pressed his hands.

"I can't drink and drink so much, I can't even stop it." Jungle's complaining voice sounded next to his ears, and a pair of big hands stretched out to take Yin Yi's place, gently massaging his abdomen.

Yin Yi shook his head lightly: "I'm happy today..." He murmured, then suddenly opened his eyes, and held down Jung Cong's hand, "I'm going to take Gu Haiping to S City, and I've already told his parents."

"Huh?" His bushy eyebrows frowned like silkworms lying in the jungle.

"Is it okay?" Yin Yi asked him.

The jungle was silent.Yin Yi asked: "Is it okay?" He tilted his head with a look of impatience.After Yin Yi drank the wine, his cheeks were flushed, and against this expression, he seemed a bit childish.Conglin smiled wryly, he had no choice but to say to Yin Yi who was drunk, "You promised me, can I still say no?"

Only then did Yin Yi calm down, and said in a low voice: "Brother, I am very happy today..."

Jungle eyebrows jumped.

Yin Yi met Shang Cong's eyes: "Brother, I am very happy today." Cong Gently rubbed his abdomen and said, "En."

Yin Yi approached the jungle, put his chin on the senior senior brother's shoulder, and sprayed his drunken breath on the other party's neck. He half closed his eyes, as if he was enjoying something: "After all these years, you are finally willing to go back."

Jungle looked up at the roof and sighed faintly.Yin Yi seemed to be talking to the jungle, and also seemed to be talking to himself: "You are finally willing...willing to go back...Elder brother, don't go anymore, okay?"

Conglin hugged Yin Yi's waist: "You are drunk."

"Really?" Yin Yi suddenly laughed softly, the laughter became louder and louder, and then she shed tears, and finally choked up: "I have waited for so many years...so many years..." His body was limp, Eyes blurred.

Conglin helped Yin Yi to lie down on the kang, and Yin Yi soon fell asleep.There was a "pop" outside, and a bright firework exploded, making the front of the window red and warm.Jungle's rough fingers gently stroked the tear stains on the junior brother's face.The hair on Yin Yi's temples was a little gray, and the corners of his eyes were also wrinkled.That handsome, elegant and heroic young man was still getting old after all.It turned out that they had been separated for so many years before they knew it.

Jungle was full of bitterness and emotion, he lowered his head involuntarily, wanting to kiss Yin Yi's lips.Suddenly, footsteps sounded outside, and then the door opened, and Cong Zhanyi walked in and said, "Master, I heard that Haiping is going to go with me, is that right?" As he spoke, he swept his eyes between the jungle and Yin Yi go.

Conglin's heart skipped a beat, and for some reason he felt a little guilty and uneasy, as if he had done something wrong and was caught by Cong Zhanyi.Looking at Cong Zhanyi's eyes that resembled his dead wife, he felt extremely embarrassed, stood up suddenly, and scolded: "I have plans to take him away or not, and it's not your turn, go to sleep, Wake up tomorrow morning to practice!"

Cong Zhanyi stared deeply at the jungle for a moment, bowed, turned and walked out.Outside, Gu Haiping was full of anticipation: "How about it, Master also agreed?"

Cong Zhanyi frowned: "Of course you have to think about whether you agree to Master, why are you so worried about it? Go to sleep and get up tomorrow morning to practice!" After finishing speaking, he went back to the East Wing to accompany Xu Shanlan.

Gu Haiping was taken aback for a moment, then blinked his eyes, did he have to do exercises tomorrow morning?That is to say, he is still willing to continue to be his master, that is to say, he agrees to take himself away.Excitedly, he jumped up and spun around, stretched out his arms and said, "Hey!"

The author has something to say: I think that Gu Haiping's leaving the fishing village is more about yearning for a new life and wanting a different life.After all, at that time, entering the city was equivalent to changing the way of life.Maybe people nowadays can’t understand it. At that time, there were even beautiful girls in the countryside who married people who were dozens of years older or physically disabled in the city (of course not discriminating against disabled people), just for an urban hukou, just for Their children can have urban hukou.

Changing from agriculture to non-agricultural society was something that many people dreamed of and struggled for all their lives, and how many people sacrificed their own happiness.

It takes courage to change your existing life.I personally admire Gu Haiping's courage.
